I am Japanese. I want to share a well-known Japanese idea: 人は見た目が9割 ("people are judged 90% by appearance"). It is ironic because it goes against our common sense that substance should matter more than appearance. The intention of this idea is to emphasize the importance of first impressions.

I think the AIDMA model is still relevant. I've seen similar dashboards elsewhere, but FUBAR Daily's design keeps me coming back.

Nice work.

Appreciate that. Is there an English term to search for and read up on 人は見た目が9割 ? I'd like to learn more about it.

It is mainly from a bestseller book. You could get hint from this.

The linked article seems to suggest that rather than "appearance" what's actually meant is "anything non-verbal"? In which case the related english language thing to look for is writings on the importance of the non-verbal aspects of communication, of which there are a lot.

Also, why does the linked article (容姿) contain a fully nude image? I don't understand the usefulness or significance (and wouldn't have expected it to be permitted regardless). https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E5%AE%B9%E5%A7%BF

...have you checked the linked page translation, it's just a page on the concept of physical appearance...

		Yes. I do not understand how an article about physical appearance meaningfully benefits from a nude photo. I thus find myself wondering if the machine translation perhaps lost some important nuance.
